First thing I'd do as the Genius Community manager is to create a Nickeny trust that doesn't do ***like SE has been.

Second, and this is a good one,

It's not widely known, but precast and midcast both process when you use a JA, so it's fine that they are in sets.midcast.BP. Pergatory has put notes to that effect. He still uses sets.pet_midcast to put the gear for all his BPs

It's neither, it's all the hands in the way between the consumer and the provider. Each level is driven to take their cut of the money, especially with government money. There is so much fraud and corruption baked into the system that is obscures the true cost of services making informed decisions hard to make.

There are ways to handle this, but it requires educating people and those people then making smart choices. Getting people to make smart responsible decisions about food is hard enough without going into the complicated realm of finances.

Hi, not sure if anyone is stil paying attention to this thread.

Wondering about Pergatory's Lua and why there is nothing in it for when you precast a Blood Pact. doesn't seem to have a 'sets.precast.BP' specified in it?

I was under the impression a precast set with 15% BP reduction I and 15% BP reduction II combined with as much Blood Boon I can equip would be what's needed before any sets.midcast.BP

maybe this Lua uses the sets.midcast.BP when the JA is activated, because further down in the Lua there are sets.pet.midcast.BP with more specific sets for BPrage/ward

It's just that I'm used to Lua's with the sets.precast commands and this confuses me somewhat.

Capitalism is too 90s.

Stop being old and obsolete

Either he is experimenting a little too much, or he is using too much of that substance you nerds use

Im still loving Chainsaw Man, but this part 2 feels like the author gave up the plot and started to do experimental stories.

It feels like those stories are leaning toward surrealism. There isnt a chapter that I dont think: WTF?

One chapter the guy vanishes every living being on earth their ear. Then the other he vanishes all mouths. For no reason.

Too late. We already do.

My roomie has royal family trees MEMORIZED.

As for me, I can't remember which Edward bailed after marrying Simpson thereby handing the crown to Elizabeth II.

Should have just capped WSD so players now rely on PDL. Slapping a -50% DT on limbus mobs is even more lazy than capping WSD, because then you run into situations where all defensive bonuses are increased on top of it ie: Sahagins taking 0 magic damage after putting up Bubble Armor

I'm still waiting for my new avatar

It's weird when someone claims they'd be better at a job than others, then dodges all questions about their methods and makes random ad hominem attacks about the author of the questions instead.

You said you'd be a genius community manager. Let's go, what's your content? How would you design, program, and implement it with the current restrictions? Don't get shy now.

Summarized the skeleton crew that is FFXI's development team.

its weird when an addict says things and attempts to make a point, but they just prove they just take it anyway their drug dealer gives it.

Doubt anyone expects new content every 6 months for a 23 year old MMO.

Something other than "do this grindy thing exactly the same every time for the next few years for questionable reward" when you do bring out new content, though.

When a large majority of your player base would rather not play than do your content, you have failed as a content designer. "Oh but reasons" is just excusing it.

Was also possibly the fact they felt pressured to get limbus back up since they "had to" close it to work on this, though afaik just about everything one needs from old limbus is on the curio moogle still.

Ideally they wouldnt have re-opened limbus until they had the the NM system they had in mind in place. Least im pretty sure they mentioned they wanted to have an NM system for rewards outside of the JSE. the +4 not being as big an increase as say +2/3 of previous sets didn't help as far as player incentive to grind goes and what NM system is there... well that's been a mixed bag.

The royals never really interested me. RIP Diana though.

Maybe I'm misreading this, but how is Daken nerfed? It should get the full benefit of STP? (Or are you saying the OAT effect is nerfed)

Honestly that's probably the best way they could of gone tbh, if you cant raise the dmg cap, make it harder to hit the cap without increasing the amount of buffs/debuffs, also means you dont have to bloat the HP even more.

Bigger issue is limbus was just weak from the onset, which is a shame considering they spent a few months closing it off, revamping the whole thing annnnd that's it? Still can turn around but it's starting on a bit of a flat note and for a dev cycle of 2+ months to add anything, a bad 1st impression is worse due to the length of time it'll take to potentially turn it around

I think one of the most frustrating things is we wanted content to use primes on.
Limbus was not that content
Flat heavy -dt is also not really a good way to do content scaling

When I look at limbus I feel like I hit the "wall" immediately
There was no journey for something more effective
No underlying mob weaknesses to take advantage of
No boundaries to really push through even with better gear
Just a hard dt wall

I also would have rather them given the mobs more hp and defense than the direct dt
Oooh I have hit r30 nyame and a prime and unless there is an exploit I am hitting a max of around 60k
Doesn't really feel celebrate-able

Even the skillchains stuffer from dt
I have found playing off some weaknesses leads to a little higher than normal sc but not much

This infact, does not spark joy.

They're in a much better place because of it and you should feel happy for them.

Sorry, I missed this message. I believe it was this guy, but I'd have to ask my partner for confirmation.

I lost so many friends to the prime grind. made me chuckle to see such a response from maletaru. Like im on your side bro lol I love BDSM ffxi just don't leave my balls in a vise for 6 months to nut

I'm gonna be honest with you guys, if I were the director of FFXI it probably would have been shut down years ago due to incompetence and mismanagement. It's not really in my area of professional expertise.

Do you think Primes are really driving player retention in any significant capacity?

If Nickeny were the Director of SE, we would have all 16 primes by now and absolutely no reason to do Sortie anymore. Congratulations everyone, even if you play all 22 jobs, it's time to quit FFXI! Great success.

You would need to intentionally lower your STP to somewhere in the mid range to have like a guaranteed OAT1 proc rate, and then fill the rest of your gear with DA/TA/QA. So half of your attacks would return the full benefit of STP but be multiple attacks, while the other half give a fixed TP return but are guaranteed to be doubled. If you exceed 100STP, your MA as far as I'm aware is "wasted" (unsure if MA can still proc prior to OAT if >100STP is met).

It's a quirky weapon that I have used on occasion just to have fun with, but it does require a unique set to get the "most" out of it. You'd have to know ahead of time how much Samurai Roll STP you're getting to maximize it (maybe GearInfo can do it, but that's too confusing for me)
